China set to expand its influence in infrastructure across emerging Asia
According to GlobalData s report, China s Involvement In Global Infrastructure , the total value of infrastructure projects in which Chinese contractors are at least partially involved stands at US$235 billion, while in South Asia the project values total US$191 billion. China launched Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in 2013 to develop the modern-day versions of the land-based Silk Road Economic Belt and the Maritime Silk Road of the 21st Century . Under the initiative, China is seeking to improve in-frastructure in emerging markets across the world, facilitating economic devel-opment through the companies that are able to transport goods more easily and cheaply between countries along various routes. Danny Richards, Lead Economist at GlobalData, comments, “Although wari-ness has been increasing among the governments in emerging markets over the risks of relying heavily on China for funding and construction contracts, the opportunities provided under the BRI can be attractive for governments with limited funding capacity and rising infrastructure needs.” In Asia, reflecting political challenges and concerns over the build-up of debt, new governments in Pakistan, Malaysia, and the Maldives, in particular, have been challenging contracts that had been signed with China or have been de-laying progress on existing projects. Nevertheless, it is clear that China is heavily influencing the development of infrastructure in Asia s emerging markets. Based on GlobalData s analysis, if all infrastructure projects in the pipeline proceed as planned, spending on projects involving Chinese contractors could reach US$64 billion in 2020, up from US$23 billion in 2014.
